My 4770K is overclocked at 4ghz and i'm using adaptive voltage for Vcore and Cache.
It uses 0.7V in idle and 1.12V in heavy load which is very high for that frequency.
In override mode i can use 1.06V without any problems @ 4ghz but the problem is that it's fixed and it's great only for gaming or heavy tasks but not for idle mode or easy tasks.
If i specify manual voltage in adaptive mode, it doesn't matter becuase it anyway will use 1.12V.
On stock (default settings) it uses 1.25V in load which is absolutely funny because with 1.25V i am very stable at 4.5ghz .
So what is better for general use @4ghz, override 1.0.6V or adaptive 0.7-1.12V ?
